Type of article: Article
Summary
The Superfluid Helium On Orbit Transfer (SHOOT) flight demonstration programme will provide the technology necessary to resupply liquid helium in space. If used in a tanker the components in SHOOT will be full scale except for tank. The SHOOT attached shuttle payload orbital operations are divided roughly into two categories: an experiment and a demonstration. The paper describes the SHOOT on orbit operations, the reasons for the methods used to obtain the experimental data, and the expected results.
